Recnely ive been trying to buy a few pieces of glass to start a collection with im buying across a wide spectrum and buy thing's that i feel are pleasing to me, I recently payed more than i usually do for pieces of glass for an item described as murano?? could you take a look at it and see if it is please!! Thanks dan.Its item no 200342827905 and has now completed. :rn:

It doesn't look like Murano to me. What interests me is the number of bidders this attracted. You were not alone. I've seen some very nice Murano, FT "Starry Nights," for example, go for much less than this , or attract no bidders. Do the bidders on this piece know something I don't?

I thought the same thing when I saw the vase, David. I checked the other offerings of the sellers and saw they were mainly clothes. I'll have to write the seller to see if there is a trick for getting such a good price for the vase... Then maybe it is something good that I just don't recognize.

Well i never noticed it was for charity!! Just thougt it was attractive i didnt think it was murano from the picture but i thought it might be czech big maybe...anyway it was quite a lot too give it seems, i will post some pictures here when it gets here today tommorow to let you see also.thanks for your perusal. :thup:

I'd like to see better pictures, too. I agree with Christine that it's worth considering Czech. I had thought about suggesting it originally, but the photo isn't clear enough (and I was too tentative). You might ask the moderator to change the subject line. If it includes "Czech?" I'm sure Jindrich will have a look.
